available.
At the Walt Disney World Vaca-
tion Kingdom, Kikkoman sponsors
Adventureland Veranda.
Few people realize that shoyu
(soy sauce) is undoubtedly man's
oldest prepared condiment. An early
ancestor of shoyu was a salty paste of
fermented grains, which was intro-
duced along with the meatless diet of
Buddhism in the sixth century. The
From the moment you first
cut into a juicy N.Y. steak
or tender teriyaki chicken
as served in the island
atmosphere of the Tahitian Terrace
in Adventureland, you'll know you're
in for a magical dining experience.
The service, food and Polynesian
entertainment are really something to
write home about.
Beginning June 14, when the
Disneyland Park begins its summer
schedule, the Tahitian Terrace will
begin serving both lunches and
dinners on a regular basis. During the
evenings, diners enjoy the Poynesian
Revue ... a colorful show complete
with native dancers and drums, and
flaming swords!
Tahitian Terrace is sponsored by
Kikkoman — the company that makes
the "vintage flavor" soy sauce noted
for bringing out the natural good-
ness in foods. Kikkoman soy sauce is
served at every table and used in most
of the dishes for which the Terrace
is known . . . pork ribs, mahi-mahi,
Polynesian vegetables, Cantonese
rice, in addition to the steaks and
chicken. The Terrace also serves egg

Chicken Teriyaki
1 medium-sized fryer, cut into
serving sized pieces
2/3 cup Kikkoman soy sauce
1/4 cup white wine
1 clove chopped or minced garlic
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon powdered ginger
Marinate for 1 hour. Remove from sauce and bake at 325° for 1 hour.
Baste with marinade 2 or 3 times while cooking.
14th century saw Japan breaking
away from China's influence and
adhering strictly to the vegetarian
diet, all the while improving the tech-
nique of the shoyu production. What
emerged was a finely balanced
seasoning used for a great variety
of foods.
Kikkoman Soy Sauce is a natu-
rally fermented blend of soybeans,
wheat, water and salt using tradi-
tional brewing methods perfected
centuries ago. Like fine wine, the true
soy sauce must be age-mellowed.
During this unhurried fermentation
period, many flavors and subtle
aromas develop which serve to
heighten the important appetite-
increasing effect of the sauce.
Kikkoman had its roots in the
city of Noda, Japan in the 17th cen-
tury and was incorporated in 1917.
Now Kikkoman Shoyu Co., Ltd. has
increased its product line to include
other sauces, soup bases and
alcoholic beverages.
Discriminating chefs who appre-
ciate the experience and tradition
that went into the making of Kik-
koman soy sauce don't restrict its use
to just meats and gravies. They find
that it adds a zestful zip to salad
dressings, soups, dips and vegetable
toppings. Try it mixed with melted
butter and brown sugar, brushed on
grapefruit halves and broiled until
glazed. A happy note for weight-
watchers: soy sauce has only12
calories per tablespoon compared to
100 or more in a tablespoon of oil
or butter. V

hen Dick and Julie Pope first
looked at the site which was to
become one of the most acclaimed
gardens in the world, what they saw
was an eerie, yet fascinating, maze of
tropical growth along the banks of
Lake Eloise, most beautiful of some
100 spring-fed lakes in the rolling
highlands area of Winter Haven.
Centuries-old Cypress trees shrouded
in silken wisps of Spanish moss
towered majestically above the lake.
The Popes envisioned a spectacular
transformation. After four years of
literally digging the drainage canals
and planting the flowers by hand, on
January 2, 1936, a 16-acre tract was
billed as Florida Cypress Gardens and
opened its gates to the world.
The Gardens became a major
tourist attraction comprising more
than 220 acres of botanical splendor
crowned by swaying palms and mir-
rored in rippling lagoons. More than
one and half million visitors a year
came to wander the flower-framed
walkways and admire the fairy-book
natural beauty. Years later, Dick
Pope's love of water skiing gave birth
to what was to become the most
famous water ski show in the world
and earned Cypress Garden the repu-
tation of the "Water Ski Capital of the
World"
After 44 years of operation.
Cypress Gardens has opened the
largest expansion in the history of the
attraction, stretching to include
4
*
another 14 acres to the south of the
original park. The area includes more
than 30 new attractions divided into
two main areas: Southern Crossroads
and The Living Forest.
Visitors to Southern Crossroads
walk the cobblestone streets of an
antebellum town nestled amidst a
colorful, floral setting. Housed in a
colonial-style theater in the heart of
Southern Crossroads is "Legends of
the South" a multi-media, historical
presentation conducted by famous
and infamous characters from some
of the South's best-known legends.
Confederate soldiers and pirates who
sailed the Florida Keys appear and
disappear. The secrets of bayou trap-
pers and Cajun voodoo queens are
revealed in this mystifying mansion
of illusion.
In the Garden Cinema, guests
view a film presentation on a three-
story tall curved screen and become
a part of such thrilling adventures as
racing an airboat through the Florida
everglades and riding a speeding boat
safely through the winding Cypress
Gardens canals, only to end up air-
borne over a ski jump ramp.
Set beneath giant oaks and
magnolias, Victorian-style bandstands
set the stage for daily concerts of
Dixieland jazz as well as character
shows for children.
The Living Forest provides a
natural Florida backdrop for the
inhabitants of "Critter Encounters,"
an animal contact area for children,
"Gator Alley;' the lagoon home for
10-12 foot alligators and crocodiles,
and "Fly Free!" a 15,000 square-foot
aviary harboring several hundred rare
birds.
The adventures of Southern
Crossroads and The Living Forest
combined with the splendor of the
original gardens create a totally
"Florida" experience. Columned
plantation mansions, beautiful belles,
colorful foliage, plenty of sunshine,
and down-home Southern hospital ity —
Cypress Gardens is most certainly
Florida at its best. V

One of the many highlights of the
25th Birthday Parade at the Disney-
land Theme Park is Cinderella riding
in a magnificent crystal coach pulled
by six toylike Shetland ponies. The
daily parade is just part of the year-
long celebration at the Park, which is
observing its silver anniversary all
year long with a calendar full of
special events.
Each colorful unit of the parade
typifies a part of the themed land it
represents. Mickey Mouse and his
best buddies, Donald, Pluto and
Goofy, wave to the crowd from the
lead unit. From New Orleans Square
_Don't Cet
Shis?arade

come dancers and Dixieland music.
From the Old West atmosphere of
Frontierland, comes an authentic
stagecoach pulled by prancing horses.
The upbeat sounds of space-age
music are featured by a musical group
from Tomorrowland. Other popular
groups from the Park — the Dapper
Dans, Royal Street Bachelors and the
Disneyland Park Band will provide
live music in the parade.
The most memorable unit of all is
the appearance of a six-horse team of
prize black Percherons pulling the
shining1907 steam calliope that was
first seen in the1955 opening of the
Park. It's the silver and blue icing on
the cake of an impressive salute to the
first quarter-century of the Magic
Kingdom. V
Sinqinq” fa
( Hr the Deaf
No matter where you go in the
Magic Kingdom, you'll be entertained
by any of a number of talented
musical performers adding to the
multitude of sights and sounds in
each land. Whether it's capturing the
feeling of another place or time or
telling a story through lyrics, dance
and music, each group communicates
a message in its own special way.
The Kids of the Kingdom, a
collection of energetic youths per-
forming daily on the Cinderella Castle
stage, add an extra dimension to their
“Lady America" medley; the Kids'
choreography includes sign language
for the deaf.
The show was created for the
Walt Disney World bicentennial
celebration in 1976 and has continued
to be popular with Magic Kingdom
guests ever since. "Lady America"
follows a patriotic theme and the sign
language was added to enhance the
idea of neighborly American's reach-
ing out to each other.
During the 20-minute show, the
Kids perform songs such as "Lady
America" "Things Are Looking Up;'
"I Like You" "All Kinds of People"
"Thank God I'm a Country Boy" and
"Everything is Beautiful" and "Still
Be Some Love Left Over" to which
they add signing.
The signing fits easily into the
choreography since the movements
are fluid and are often symbolic of
the words they express. Many of the
signs can be quickly identified by
even those not familiar with sign
language. For example, the word
"love" is expressed by pressing the
hands over the heart.
Audience reaction to the show
has been overwhelming. Many groups
of deaf visitors have conversed back
to the Kids, signing "We like you too!"
The Kids of the Kingdom "Lady
America" show unites three basic
forms of communication that surpass
the spoken word in beauty of expres-
sion and universality — music, dance
and sign language. What better
accompaniment to song which states:
If you add all the love in the world,
Take away all the hate and the pain.
There would still be some love left
over. V

‘Let s go to the Movies
Herbie Goes Bananas
f That incomparable Love
Bug, "Herbie" certainly gets
around. His fourth film,
"Herbie Coes Bananas;' is
scheduled for release in July,
and this one will positively establish
the free-wheeling Volkswagen as an
international celebrity.
"Bananas" was filmed in the
Mexican resort cities of Puerto
Vallarta and Guadalajara with much
of the complex stunt production being
recorded in Tijuana and the Panama
Canal Zone. Joining Herbie in this
new comedy are Cloris Leachman,
Harvey Korman, Charles Martin
Smith, John Vernon, Elyssa Davalos,
Stephan Burns and Joaquin Garay.
Television comedienne and dramatic
actress Cloris Leachman plays a
romance-minded divorcee trying in
vain to capture the heart of a dapper
cruise ship captain played by Harvey
Korman. Stephan Burns and Elyssa
Davalos provide the main love
interest, having been brought together
by the Cupid shenanigans of Herbie
the Love Bug. Teaming up with Herbie
to thwart the efforts of smugglers in
South America is 12-year-old Joaquin
Garay 1 1 1 — a regular in tv's "Cliffwood
Avenue Gang"
Herbie's latest adventure takes
him through the locks of the Panama
Canal; into a bullring complete with a
raging bull; into the steaming jungle;
and finally to a downright dogfight
on an airplane runway!
But Herbie is used to dangerous
stunts and action-packed productions.
His previous comedies— "The Love
Bug" (1969), "Herbie Rides Again"
(1974) and "Herbie Goes to Monte
Carlo" (1977), have proved to be one
of the most successful boxoffice
series in the history of motion pictures.
From the very beginning, Herbie
was no ordinary car. Aside from a
physical resemblance to his assembly
line counterparts, this 1963 sunroof
model Volkswagen bug with the red,
white and blue racing stripes, sporting
the number "53" on his side, was
clearly one in a million. In19 77,
Herbie became the first automobile
to imprint his tracks for posterity in
the cement forecourt of the famed
Grauman's Chinese Theatre.
"Herbie Goes Bananas" was writ-
ten by versatile Disney screenwriter
Don Tait who also acted as associate
producer. A former child-star, Kevin
Corcoran, acts as the second associate
producer. Oscar-winner Danny Lee
provided the outstanding special
effects for the film. Vincent McEveety
directed.

The Last Flight of Noahs Ark ^
Part of the movie fare
offered by Walt Disney
Productions this summer
will be "The Last Flight of
Noah's Ark;' a loaded-with-
action adventure starring Elliott
Gould and Genevieve Bujold. The
story's flight follows a turbulent jour-
ney of survival for four people in a
decrepit World War 1 1 B-29 bomber
loaded with farm animals.
Genevieve Bujold, winner of
several international "Best Actress"
awards, plays a prim evangelist who
hires Elliott Gould, a pilot who prefers
living in the fast lane, to fly the vin-
tage B-29 filled with livestock to a
South Pacific mission. Unknown to
them, there are two stowaways
aboard also— played by popular
child movie star Ricky Schroder and
by Tammy Lauren of the "Angie" tv
series. A compass malfunction forces
the plane from its course, and they are
forced to beach it on an uncharted
tropical island. Unexpected allies
come to their rescue and they are able
to convert the huge bomber to a make-
shift sailboat so that they can sail on
to civilization. But this is not before
friendships develop between the chil-
dren and a dolphin called Dodger, and
between Gould and Bujold, whose
early cold relationship soon melts
into romance.
Unexpected help in the form of
two Japanese soldiers comes to the
planewrecked party. The two men,
played by Yuki Shimoda and John
Fujioka, have been stranded on the
island for 35 years, still unaware that
World War II has ended. After they've
been briefed on past history, the pair
prove to be skillful engineers who
devise a design which converts the
B-29 to a somewhat seaworthy craft.
A patchwork sail is rigged which had
its origin as a Japanese flag and old
parachute. The plexiglass nose section
of the plane provides a fascinating
underwater panorama of the sea
beneath them.
A secluded stretch of beach
on the island of Kauai in Hawaii was
utilized as the filming site for much of
"Noah's" story. At the Disney studio, a
special effects team reconstructed
the crash of the B-29 in miniature.
Many of the underwater scenes were
completed far from the open sea in
the friendly confines of the sound
stage tank where "20,000 Leagues
Under the Sea" was filmed.
Procuring the five B-29s needed
to complete "Noah's Ark" was a chal-
lenge to the production personnel.
Four scrapped models were located at
the Navy China Lake Facilities in the
Mojave Desert. Two were shipped to
the studio in Burbank dismantled and
two to Hawaii where they had to be
reassembled for various interior sets.
The fifth plane, which had to fly and
is one of only two existing models left
in the world that is airworthy, was
rented from Ralph Johnston of Oak-
land. (The other is owned by a group
calling itself the Confederate Air
Force ... an organization interested in
the preservation of vintage planes.)
With its noted stars and excit-
ing screenplay written by Steven W.
Carabatsos, Sandy Glass and George
Arthur Bloom based on a story by
Ernest K. Gann, "The Last Flight of
Noah's Ark" promises to be a favorite
of those searching for a summertime
film adventure, both colorful and
unique. The production was directed
by Charles Jarrott and produced by
Ron Miller and Jan Williams.V

It marina, water garden and 165-foot long water cas-
cade will again dominate the picturesque points of interest
at the Disneyland Hotel this summer.
This year's Water Wonderland at the hotel complex
will repeat last year's exciting evening entertainment of the
Dancing Waters and Lights Fantastic Show. .. with its new
8-channel sound system and a sophisticated environmental
laser beam sculpture, "Still Green" Visitors can stroll
beneath the cool Horseshoe Falls water cascade which
descends into reflecting pools emphasized by multi-
colored lights. The Falls are located in front of the Bonita
Tower, the newest addition to the hotel.
A colorful arts and crafts bazaar is housed in the
Artisans' Market. Food concessions will offer a varied
selection of delectables for eating out of doors.
At the marina, where visitors may rent peddle boats,
there will be organized races for the younger set. Traveling
parents have voiced their wholehearted approval to the
evening supervised activities of the Children's Youth Clubs.
Evening musical entertainment is featured at the
rooftop lounge, Top of the Park, and at La Cantina. Eating
establishments include the Shipyard Inn, famous for savory
seafood specialties; Mazie's Pantry, a sidewalk cafe; and
the Chef's Kitchen.
A favorite pastime of the Disneyland Hotel guest is
shopping in the myriad of shops located right in the hotel
complex. Disneyland souvenirs are very popular to present
to the folks back home. Toys, games and candy appeal to
the small tots. Sportswear, brand name fashions and many
unique gift items are offered in several boutiques, all within
steps of each other. Travelers discover that this lively col-
lection of specialty and gift shops is really a shopping
adventure and very handy for the various items one inevit-
ably forgets to pack.

Wonders of Walt Disney World
" School-age youngsters are
capable of absorbing a tremendous
amount of learning. Given the chance,
they have an amazing aptitude for
knowledge. I feel a full-time education
for our youth is our best investment in
the future ."
— Walt Disney
A Kingdom of Learning Opportunities
The Disney education tradition
began as early as the 30's and 40's
when the Studio animators lent their
talents to educators and doctors in
the creation of educational films.
The award-winning True Life Adven-
ture Film Series brought unprece-
dented public awareness and concern
for protection of our natural environ-
ment.
The Walt Disney Educational
Media Company is known internation-
ally for its fine selection of educa-
tional films, recordings, and activities.
Disneyland has hosted such
programs as "Fun with Music" and the
"Bicentennial Celebration" Every day
in the Walt Disney World Magic
Kingdom, history lessons are taught
to thousands in the Hall of Presidents.
The "Wonders of Walt Disney
World" is another step forward in
education. And with EPCOT Center
on the way, with all its emphasis on
education and communication, the
"Wonders of Walt Disney World" is
another commitment to the notion
that learning can be fun.
What is the " Wonders of Walt Disney
World"?
The "Wonders of Walt Disney
World" is an educational program
that makes the physical and human
resources of the Walt Disney World
"living laboratory" available for valid
off-campus learning during the school
year for students in the fifth to tenth
grades. "Wonders of Walt Disney
World" focuses in four areas, offering
students a choice of courses which
includes "The Energy That Runs Our
World" "Walt Disney World of Enter-
tainment" "Disney Creative Arts"
and "The Wonders and Beauty of Our
World."
Unlike many field trips, the
"Wonders of Walt Disney World"
integrates learning activities before
and after the student's trip to the
Vacation Kingdom. These pre-and
post-trip activities are designed to
add educational value to the program
and permit parents, teachers, and
fellow classmates to become
involved.
How does it work ?
Let's say a family has decided to
come to the Walt Disney World resort
complex and wants to enroll their
child in one of the four "Wonders of
Walt Disney World" courses. They
write in and make a reservation for
the desired class on a desired day.
Several weeks before their trip, a pre-
trip book of information and activities
is sent to the student. This book is
designed to challenge the student to
observe, compare, research, think,
and form tentative conclusions about
the course area. More importantly,
these exercises encourage students to
begin and continue their learning at
home — investigating and appreci-
ating the information and ideas that
are already part of their world.
Once the students arrive at Walt
Disney World, their program begins
with a brief classroom session to
orient them to the learning activities,
objectives, and opportunities ahead.
They then leave the classroom
for a firsthand look at the resources
of Walt Disney World. Each student is
given complimentary use of a Polaroid
One Step® camera throughout the trip
to record observations that will
become a part of the students' reports
back home to classmates and friends.
Students enrolled in "The Energy
That Runs Our World" take an exciting
look at how Walt Disney World uses,
produces, and distributes energy in
ways that offer solutions to the
energy challenges ahead. Students
see and learn about transportation
systems, visit the GE Carousel of
Progress to see the relationship be-
tween our standard of living and the
use of energy in the home, and tour
the Walt Disney World Central Energy
Plant where they analyze such inno-
vations as a computerized energy
distribution system and prototype
solar energy plant.
"The Disney Creative Arts" offers
a look at the Magic Kingdom as a
living, three-dimensional canvas
where students discover the art
that's all around them. They learn
how the use of shape, color and tex-
ture come together. They learn about
the careful planning that goes into the
communication of ideas, moods, and
feelings in all art forms — sculptures.
mosaics, landscapes. The group
members also demonstrate their
grasp of the basics by creating their
own portraits of Disney characters,
under the direction of a Disney artist.
"The Walt Disney World of
Entertainment" explores the three
"roles" of entertainment — onstage
performers, backstage performers,
and the audience. Professional per-
formers meet with the students to
discuss and demonstrate the im-
portance of lighting, sets, music, pac-
ing, timing, and practice in putting on
a successful show.
In "The Wonder and Beauty of
Our World" students begin by viewing
a Disney educational film that pre-
views Florida's unique ecosystems
and then take off on a tour of Dis-
covery Island, an 11-acre sanctuary
for over 60 rare species of birds and
animals and the Disney conservation
area, which includes 7,500 acres of
protected wilderness, cypress swamps
and marshland. Using binoculars,
students observe, indentify and record
in their nature logs an extraordinary
range of plant and animal life.
At the end of the session, students
return to the classroom for a wrap-up,
relating what they have seen to their

own world and to the future. The
entire classroom and field trip session
lasts four to five hours.
The learning does not stop at
Walt Disney World, however. Students
take home their creations or samples,
photographs, a post-trip activity book
and a new sense of awareness and
appreciation for the Wonders around
them.
Like any new Disney project, the
"Wonders of Walt Disney World" has
undergone extensive planning and
development— initial planning began
more than two years ago. To be sure
the "Wonders of Walt Disney World"
would be a Disney-quality program
that met the criteria of the educa-
tional community for valid off-campus
learning, Walt Disney World Co.
worked very closely with the Georgia
Department of Education in defining
the objectives and goals.
Field tests were conducted in the
spring of 1979 with students from
Henry County, Georgia, and Orange
County, Florida. On the basis of the
results, the "Wonders of Walt Disney
World" has received the cooperation
of the state superintendents of
Georgia, Florida, and New Jersey.
This spring, the first students
from these three states participated
in the "Wonders of Walt Disney
World" pilot programs.
Current plans call for the pro-
gram to be offered to selected states
in the fall, and then regionally and
nationally in the ensuing years. By the
time EPCOT Center opens, a whole
new "Wonders of Walt Disney World"
program will be underway, incor-
porating the tremendous resources
of the pavilions in Future World and
the World Showcase.

On September 30, 1787 an
armed merchant vessel com-
missioned Columbia sailed
from Boston Harbor to be-
come the first ship to carry
the American flag in oceans around
the world. According to her log, she
sailed to the Pacific Northwest and
on to the Orient where she traded furs
for chinaware, tea, spices and silks.
When she returned to her home port
in August of 1790, she had been at sea
for 34 months and had logged a dis-
tance of 41,899 miles.
During the last months of
1790, the Columbia began her second
expedition, again under the command
of Captain Robert Gray. During this
voyage, Gray discovered the river
which today bears the name of the
historical vessel. Several more expe-
ditions were made by the Columbia
during her proud lifetime. It is
believed she finally disappeared
without a trace somewhere in the
Orient; although one legend has it
that she was taken by a crew member
and used as a privateer, while still
another claims she was wrecked
off the rocky shores of Nantucket.
The historical significance of the
original Columbia was in its establish-
ment of international trade routes
and good relations with the West
Coast Indian tribes. Its magnificent
counterpart, located in the Disney-
land Magic Kingdom, establishes a
living history of the ship that helped
create a Pacific Coast empire for the
United States.
The fully-rigged, three-masted
replica is berthed at Fowler's Harbor
across from Tom Sawyer's Island in
the Theme Park during the winter
season. She was dedicated there on
June14, 1958. Research in the Library
of Congress and a single steel engrav-
ing from the book, "Voyages of the
Columbia" provided the background
for the design of the vessel. Her hull
was constructed at Todd Shipyards
and then completed at the Park by
workmen using similar tools to those
used on the original ship.
"Below Decks" on the Columbia
was opened February 22, 1964. It is
an authentic replica of living con-
ditions on the Berth Deck of the
original ship. ..a veritable maritime
museum. Visitors see the mess table
surrounded by officers' cabins. The
Captain's Great Cabin astern is fur-
nished with a dining table, two bunks,
chart table, and navigational equip-
ment. Along the port side is an exhibit
of tackle, blocks, sail and rope-making
gear. There is a forge for tool making
and an open-hearth galley on the
opposite side for the cook. In the
foc'sle are eight (not too roomy)
bunks which were for the able and
sometimes not too able seamen.
Topside, the sturdy Douglas fir
planking of the Columbia stretches
for an overall deck length of over 83
feet. Her mainmast reaches 84 feet
above the weather deck.
Carrying passengers along the
Rivers of America during the sum-
mer, the gallant Columbia joins a
Disneyland fleet that includes the
sternwheeler Mark Twain, keelboats,
Tom Sawyer Island rafts and Indian
war canoes. But although she is
confined to the waters of a river, the
Columbia has the proud bearing of
her counterpart that once knew the
freedom of much vaster expanses . . .
when she was truly an original "gem"
of the ocean. V
‘‘Like a true ship, committed to her
element once for all at her
Launching, she perished at seal’

Pacific island. Ricky Schroder,

partly on location in Hawaii. Charles

Proclamation Honors Disney
Contributions
On the occasion of Disneyland's
25th Anniversary, the late Walt Disney
was honored by a proclamation
passed by the U.S. House of Repre-
sentatives and Senate. Speaker of the
House Tip O'Neil made the presenta-
tion to Donn Tatum, Chairman of the
Board of Walt Disney Productions,
February 19, in the Speaker's Circle
Chamber.
Text of the President's message
follows:
"In the world of entertainment
no name is more widely known than
that of Walt Disney. For nearly
fifty years, his creations brought us
laughter and love, joy and gladness.
The products of his imagination will
enthrall and delight many more
generations of children of all ages in
every country on earth.
"The House of Representatives,
by a joint resolution of February13,
1980, has requested the President
to issue a proclamation honoring
the memory of Walt Disney for his
contribution to the American dream.
"NOW, THEREFORE, I, JIMMY
CARTER, President of the United
States of America, do hereby call
upon the people of this Nation to
recall the accomplishments of Walt
Disney and to honor his memory on
February 19, 1980.
"IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have
hereunto set my hand this Nineteenth
day of February, in the year of our
Lord nineteen hundred and eighty,
and of the Independence of the
United States of America the two
hundred and fourth" jimmy Carter
That evening at Constitution Hall,
the Kids of the Kingdom performed
the 25th Anniversary Show, "Disney-
land is Your Land" and Donn received
the proclamation again.
In separate ceremonies held in
New York at the Avery Fischer Hall in
Lincoln Center, Dick Nunis, Executive
Vice President of Disneyland, Walt
Disney World and Outdoor Recrea-
tion, received an honorary citation
presented to Disneyland from UNICEF
for Distinguished Conduct and
Fidelity in the Performance of Out-
standing Service to the World's Chil-
dren. Ambassador McHenry, U.S.
Ambassador to the United Nations,
and actress Celeste Holm made the
presentation Monday, February 25
before an audience comprised of
delegates to the U N. and their
families.
